PM Justin Trudeau is being mocked on social media again, this time for fumbling a photo-op, apparently unaware of how to hold a hammer properly.

Trudeau ridiculed for backwards hammer photo-op, calls workers “overalled folks”

Following another heavily controlled announcement on housing this week, Trudeau lingered on set to take a photo-op, posing with workers while awkwardly holding a hammer—something he’s likely never used in his life—backwards.

Funnily enough, if you look closely at the hammer he’s holding, you can see the letters ‘PM’, i.e., Prime Minister, in red, because apparently Trudeau couldn’t just be told to pick up the hammer: he needed it labelled for him.

Former Conservative Leader Andrew Scheer also took to X to mock how out of touch Trudeau was with the average Canadian after the PM called hard-working blue-collar workers “overalled folks” following his little photo-op fumble.

“I was in Hamilton in a classic steel plant. I was meeting some of those, you know, overalled folks who were proud to say they were third- and even fourth-generation steelworkers in Hamilton,” Trudeau bumbled before yet another controlled audience.

Trudeau is starting to feel the pressure

It also seems the Prime Minister is feeling the pressure put on by Canadians and even Premiers over his carbon tax and failed policies, as he’s fumbled nearly every announcement this week with tacit admissions of his own incompetence.

Earlier this week, Trudeau made another announcement on housing, trying to explain away the root cause of unaffordability, only to get sidetracked when he admitted that mass immigration is at the root of the problem. Specifically, the problem, as defined by Trudeau, is bringing in millions of temporary workers and foreign students, which has been at the heart of his immigration plan.

“Over the past few years, we’ve seen a massive spike in temporary immigration, whether it’s temporary foreign workers or whether it’s international students in particular that have grown at a rate far beyond what Canada has been able to absorb,” Trudeau said.

“To give an example, in 2017, two per cent of Canada’s population was made up of temporary immigrants. Now we’re at 7.5 per cent of our population comprised of temporary immigrants. That’s something we need to get back under control.”

His apparent solution to this issue will be to put a halt on the temporary immigrants while still letting in half a million permanent ones each year, as well as revitalizing the ‘post-war housing design catalogue’ because things have really gotten that bad after 8 years of Trudeau.
